Stallions Softball
The Greater Cabarrus Athletic Association (GCAA) primary function is to provide a competitive sports venue for homeschool students. It is an environment that promotes a Christian approach to sports and teaches the student athlete the importance of bringing their faith into their athletics.
Christ Centered Softball Program
The GCAA softball program includes middle school and varsity teams, competing against private and charter schools in Cabarrus and surrounding counties. Through the program, we aim to teach the importance of bringing faith into athletics, creating a nurturing environment that fosters skill and character development.

Team Selection
Teams are comprised of homeschool athletes* from the region who are willing and able to contribute and subscribe to the rules, philosophies and goals of the program. Teams will be chosen based on age, skill level, athletic ability, attitude and ability to understand roles as well as the concept of being a team player. Selections are performed by the coaches during a tryout process that will be announced prior to the season start up.
Practice Sessions and Games
Practice sessions/games are usually help 4 times a week Feb 29 – May 10. Games are scheduled throughout the region (normally within one hour of Concord, NC) on various dates. A schedule of the practices and games will be published before the season starts.
Team Goals
- Provide an environment that fosters growth in each player. This includes growth in their faith, athletic skill, and citizenship.
- Increase the technical skill level of players and grow their knowledge of the rules of softball and game strategy.
- Demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ in our team play and competition.
We are committed to providing the best possible environment for our softball players to reach their maximum playing potential through excellence in coaching. Our players will be challenged to excel not only for their own growth but also for the betterment of their team and the organization.
COACHING OPPORTUNITIES
We encourage parents to take involvement in their child’s sports journey seriously by attending practice sessions and games as much as possible and working with their athletes outside of practices and games on coaching instruction they receive. Parents may be recruited for official coaching positions on the team after teams are finalized for each season.
